Craigslist gem

Nice little Craigslist gem I found. I may have to give the chap a call and see if he still has it.

interesting...just make sure its a true factory 4WD if you pursue it...first 3 of the VIN will be either F11 or F26 for 1/2 and 3/4 ton trucks respectively...

Take a gander at the right rear fender, tell me what's it's off of.

It is from a Ford, but it's not original to this truck.

I wouldn't call this truck a gem...looks more like a diamond in the rough.

btw Squire Don, did'ja happen to know that in 1960, Ford used F10 for both 2WD & 4WD?

John - I'm fairly new to this site and read it several times a day. I know you've been around here a long time, are respected, and probably will forget more about these trucks than I'll ever know.

That being said... is there ever a time you aren't complaining about something???

ND: if what I'm seeing as a sharp horizontal body line and not a big scratch, I'd guess '46-'48 rear fenders?

When you are not following the guidelines set up for the site, I thought it was open game to complain about you not following them, no???

I don't know about this one. He definitely isn't selling a truck. So no violation there. If he is thinking of buying it then this would be the place to ask about it, pro or con. Now, I have posted a few myself and I wasn't selling or buying. I posted because they were so damn funny and everyone can use a laugh. Many were then critiqued on what was correct and what wasn't.

  1. What specific guidelines is he not following?
  2. Are you just looking for reasons to complain?
I'm just asking.
